Campus Thefts
Reach New Peak
Recently, there has been an out-break
of thefts on Bethel's cam-pus.
Stolen items range in value
from $60 to $220. Some of these
include clothing, books, purses
and many personal belongings.
In one case, a coed had her
shoes taken from her closet. In
another case, one Student Senate
secretary had her purse stolen
from the Senate office.
The administration feels that
much of this is done by Bethel
students. In an interview with
Dean Muck, he stated, "Some of
these thefts have to be inside
jobs. I am sure of this from my
own acquaintance with the pro-cedures
used. I am also sure
that there is some sneak thiev-ery
involved."
Complaints of thefts reached a
peak in late September and early
October. Since then they have tap-ered
off somewhat, until just re-cently
they were again brought to
our attention.
"Thefts on campus are virtually
impossible to trace. The police do
check the pawn shops regularly
for identifiable items."
Muck also gave some ideas
for the prevention of these bur-glaries.
First, students must be
careful not to leave anything
which might be a tempta-tion
to otheri. The dean also
stated that students must be con-stantly
vigilant.
"We have a lot of people drift-ing
through our campus. We
should pay attention to strangers
as well as our own students."
To conclude the interview, Dean
Muck said that thefts should be
reported immediately. This is
necessary to heighten chances for
recovery of the stolen goods.

The Religious Committee is
sponsoring a special subscription
rate for His magazine, the pub-lication
of Inter-Varsity Chris-tian

ing how majors offered at Bethel
can be used in missionary service.
The week has been set aside for
emphasis on the global implica-tions
of Christ's Great Commission.
Although nearly twenty centuries
have passed since Christ urged His
disciples to "go into all the world
and preach the gospel," people are
forced to admit that the task of
world-wide evangelism is far from
complete.
Main speaker Rev. Vincent
Brushwyler, D.D., former General
Director of the Conservative Bap-tist
Foreign Missionary Society,

as Christians of sur-veying
the needs of today's world.
Rev. Brushwyler has traveled a-round
the world twice, visiting the
CBFMS mission fields. Presently,
he is occupied as an itinerant min-ister.
Other Missions Week partici-pants

Skalman Films
Student Actors
It has been the experience of
most Bethel students to be trou-bled
by bright lights and strange
scenes in the coffee shop this
past week.
Byron Skalman has been film-ing
one of a series of films on
foreign mission fields. This one is
on the Philippines. The movie
starts on the Bethel campus and
through interviews with a CLAR-ION
reporter three missionaries
describe the Philippine mission
field in a series of flashbacks.
The three missionaries appear-ing
in the film, Roy Nelson, An-drew
Nelson and Bill Chesbro are
home for World Missions Week.
Other films done by Skalman
for the Conference are on the mis-sions
in Assam, India, Argentina,
Ethiopia, Brazil and Japan.
Skalman started as a photo-grapher
for an aircraft company
and as the company grew he gain-ed
experience. After serving as a
Navy photographer he worked at
Moody Institute of Science before
attending Bethel Jr. College. He
left the college to teach at Moody
and then went into his present
field of filming world missions.
"Negro Thought on Civil Rights
—1964" will be discussed by Cal-vin
Walton, Executive Director of
the Minnesota Governor's Commis ,
sion on Human Rights, in tomor-row's
civil rights convocation, the
second of the series of three be-ing
held this week.
Dr. Harold Chase, professor of
political science at the University
of Minnesota, started the series to-day
with a lecture on the Civil
Rights law and its implications.
Walton, himself a Negro, re-ceived
his B.S. degree from Ten-nessee
Agricultural and Industrial
State U with a major in political
science and a minor in history.
He received his M.A. in political
science from Ohio State U in 1959,
Prior to his present position
with the State, Walton spent
four years wih the Urban Lea-gue.
His duties with the League
consisted of working to improve
employment and training for
Negro citizens.
Rev. Will Campbell from Nash-ville,
Tenn., will speak on the
"Christian and Human Rights" in
the convocation Friday and will
continue this theme in an evening
convocation at 8.
Campbell has had a wide and
varied involvement with the racial
issue in the south. After his resig-nation
as Chaplain of Ole Miss, he
became actively involved in the
National Council of Churches. He
is currently involved as full time
staff member of the Council of
Southern Churchmen. This organi-zation,
founded by Campbell, re-flects
his convictions that the
church should meet the race prob-lem
with the Christian Gospel
rather than a humanistic approach.
A noon luncheon will be held
in the President's Dining hall
tomorrow with WaiTon, and on
Friday with Campbell. Students
are encouraged to bring any
questions they have on the is-sues
for the lecturers to discuss.
The Convocation committee has
arranged for this series of three
debate on the proposed Bethel
supper club.

constitution by a 12-3 vote with
civil rights convocations in order
to make an impact on the student

Bodien Council
Clarifies Rules;
Stiffens Policy
Last Thursday the Bodien Dorm
Council decided to "crack down"
on the rule which "normally ex-pects"
freshmen girls to be in
their rooms by 11 p.m. on week
days. Freshmen girls are now re-quired
to be in their rooms at 11
p.m. in Bodien Dormitory.
Because a greater percentage of
upper class women live in Hag-strom
and each room has its own
washroom facilities, the inforce-ment
in Hagstrom will remain as
liberal as it has in the past.
During the Bodien meeting, the
dorm president was reported to
have explained, "Dorm council
doesn't want to lose face. The
CLARION said we were inconsist-ant."
She later qualified this statement
by pointing out, ". . . we meant,
we haven't been strictly enforcing
it because it isn't fitting to both
dormitories . . . There is incon-sistancy.
This rule is not plain;
therefore we are clarifying it."
When asked if this new enforce-ment
would require a change in
the freshmen girls' handbook, Bo-dien's
president answered, "No,
according to the handbook it (11
p.m. rule) could go either way.
So, we are going to enforce the
rule."
This change in the enforcement
policy of the rule will not affect
the upper class women living in
Bodien. Study hours will be from
2-5 p.m. and from 7-10 p.m. The
hour from 10-11 p.m. will be des-ignated
"washroom hour."
two abstaining in the previous
Monday's meet.
The matter went into delib-eration
last Wednesday night as
Bill Madsen and his committee
gathered with Joe Marcea, J.
David Patterson and Dennis
Rossi to work on the Senate ob-jections
to the standing consti-tution.
Five issues were taken into con-sideration,
chief among them be-ing
the question of closed mem-bership.
Patterson defended the
Cabin's position on the grounds
that membership would be closed
due to inadequate space. Clarify-ing
his stand, Patterson noted that
Captain's Cabin would only be
closed after all reservations had
been made for the next event.
George Palke, chairman of the
Athletic Committee, voiced his
objection to the supper club be-cause
it would interfere with
all-school events. Cabin repre-sentatives
objected to a specific
adjournment time but agreed to
keep all-school activities in mind
when planning an entertainment
schedule.
Opinions on the controversial
Captain's Cabin were widely var-ied
as Dr. Roy Dalton, professor
of history, vowed to "fight it all
the way to the president's office,"
on the grounds that the type of
programs and general purpose of
the Cabin are contrary to Bethel's
purpose as a Christian college.

Republicans Give Voters
No Choice But Johnson
"Let conservatives give the people a choice," claimed
Goldwater Republicans before the Republican National Con-vention.
Conservatives won at the Convention and they gave
the American people a choice in the 1964 presidential election.
They chose to give Lyndon B. Johnson the greatest popu-lar
vote margin in United States history with over 61% of the
record 70 million votes cast. And they chose to elect a more
liberal Congress. This lopsided victory of Democratic candidates
appears to be a "mandate, loud and clear," as Time magazine
puts it, for Johnson and his "Great Society."
But not all things are what they appear to be. It is very
possible that the American people's choice was not so much
a mandate for Johnson as it was a rejection of Goldwater
and his conservatism.
If people had not been voting against Goldwater, why
would former Republican strongholds in New England and the
Midwest have reversed their past history of party alignments
to vote for Johnson? Small Protestant towns across New Eng-land,
which have long been known for conservative voting,
went consistantly for Johnson, making almost a complete a-bout
face from the way they voted in the 1960 election between
moderate Republican Nixon and liberal Democrat Kennedy.
Rural Midwestern states like Iowa, Nebraska, downstate
Illinois and rural Wisconsin, which have voted Republican
down the line for years, went with unprecedented margins for
Johnson. Why? Because people do not see the need for a
drastic shift in direction. In the past the American people
have not chosen to make extreme changes unless the times—
a great depression or war—called for change.
Although many people would rather have voted for a
man more moderate than the New Dealing Johnson, they
could not because the Republican party gave them a choice
that called for drastic change when the people saw and felt
no need for it. The Republian party made a political blunder
when it forgot to consider the mood of the people and of-fered
them a choice that left them no choice . . . except to
vote for Johnson.
With the benefit of hindsight it is easy to agree with
New York's Governor Rockefeller that Goldwater took the
party out of the mainstream of American political history. In
taking it out of the mainstream he grounded the party ship
taking several good Republican politicians like Keating of New
York, Taft of Ohio and Percy of Illinois down with him.
If the American people issued a mandate in the 1964
presidential election, it was not just a mandate for Johnson.
It was also a mandate for moderate Republicans to recover
control of the Republican party so that the two party system
can continue.

Letters to the Editor:
Wells: 'Rule Insults Maturity'
by John Halvorson
Sino - Soviet Relations .. .
The Chinese and Soviets may
talk peace. Communist middlemen
are trying to arrange Sino-Soviet
peace talks, attempting to get the
feuding Red giants together at the
conference table. However, the
Soviets have re-iterated their "no
back down" idealogical position.
U.S. - Soviet Relations .. .
Following a policy of alternating
civilian friendship and military
toughness, the Soviet defense min-ister
accused the United States De-fense
Secretary, Robert S. Mc-
Namara, of threatening to destroy
his country "at any moment." He
then added, "Any enemy attempt
to destroy the Soviet Union will,
be answered in a suitable manner."
Saudi Arabia .. .
In Saudi Arabia, King Saud was
dethroned and his brother, Crown
Prince and Prime Minister, Faisal
proclaimed King. The Cabinet Min-isters
and Religious Consultive
Council approved the dethrone-ment.
Faisal has been the real
ruler since ailing King Saud was
forced from power in 1962.
Viet-Nam ...
Vietnamese Major General Ngu-yen
Khanh advised the United
States to take the war to Commun-ist
North Vietnam and Red China.
He claims the balance of power in
Asia will swing in favor of Com-munist
China unless the United
States takes more positive action.
Humphrey Successor . . .
Hubert Humphrey advised Gov-ernor
Karl Rolvaag to designate
the vice-president's successor in
the Senate "promptly and as soon
as possible." Speculation gives
Walter F. Mondale, a Minneapolis
attorney, the nod.
Polls . . .
Elections were the big news on
the national scene. The polls prov-ed
correct in their analysis of
election results. The long-establish-ed
Gallop Poll picked Johnson -
Humphrey by 61%. Their actual
margin-61.3%.
Republicanism .. .
The GOP must now regather and
conciliate its forces. Unity is a
real problem. The Conservative,
Moderate and Liberal factions are,
all fighting for control. Goldwater
says he won't surrender the party
leadership. Meanwhile, Nixon call-ed
Rockefeller a "spoil-sport." The
reply came back that Nixon was
"peevish."

Dear Editor:
In preface to my remarks about
the dorm rules at Bethel, I would
like to state that in any organiza-tion,
rules are necessary. But in
Bethel's dorms some of the rules
in practice are unreasonable. This
situation causes more problems
than it solves.
The "11 p.m. in the room" rule
is an unreasonable rule. It places
restrictions on maturity; it insults
the basic idea of personal disci-pline.
The motive of the ruling is
probably to make the dorm quiet
for sleeping but most students
study after this hour in their
rooms anyway.
It would be advantageous if we
were allowed freedom of move-ment
from room-to-room. Then we
could study and discuss assign-ments
with friends and borrow
materials. As it stands now we
can be campused for doing the
things that would be helpful in
our studying.
Another rule that is unrea-sonable
is the campus system.
Under this a girl may be "im-prisoned"
in her room for minor-trivia
such as using the toilet
after hours (at least in Bodien).
Using this system a girl may be
expelled from college for no
more than being caught in the
bathroom five times after hours.
I don't propose that we let the
student engage in activities such
as showers that could disturb oth-ers.
I do propose that we be allow-ed
to have freedom to move in
and out of our rooms without fear
of being campused.
There is the problem, too, of the
value of offenses for which we can
Jesus or the other man that has,
been offered, Barabbas?
What about this Jesus of Nazar-eth
whom the people have misun-derstood?
He has been traveling
throughout the country for the last
few years preaching and teaching
ideas which are foreign to the pre-sent
generation yet many of His
concepts are those that were held
at the beginning of this nation's
history.
He attacks those who are in
high places. He condemns them
for hypocrisy and corruption.
The few who follow this Jesus
are fanatical in their devotion
to Him. Accusations, many of
be campused. Would anyone dare,
to propose that being out of our
rooms after hours is as serious an
offense as coming in late? Again
under the campus system there is
unjust punishment for minor, tri-vial
things.
Idealy, in a Christian atmos-phere
there should not be writ-ten
laws. Common courtesies
should be observed without a
"legalistic" system. Such can be
the case at Bethel.
It follows that after condemn-ing
one system that one should
propose an alternate, more work-able
solution. I present for appro-val
a system of demerits. Under
this system there would be a value
placed on each offense. The more
flagrant violations could be dealt
with more severely than the minor,
trivial discourtesies.
Also, I propose that the "11 p.m.
in the room" rule be removed and
instead a more mature approach
to control be used.
These are my views. I hope they
will be considered carefully; keep-ing
in mind that no society can
be perfectly static and without
need for changes.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary Ellen Wells
Several Agree
Dear Editor,
As residents of Bodien, a num-ber
of us were especially interest-ed
in the article in last week's
CLARION concerning Bodien's "11
p.m. rule." There are, of course,
conflicting views regarding this
matter, but those of us who op-which
are false, have been hurl-ed
against Him.
When answering questions He is
quick and forthright to present His
ideas. He is a radical and His
ideas do not fit in the great so-ciety
of this new frontier.
Now He stands before the peo-ple.
They have to make a choice.
What will their decision be?
"Give us Barabbas!", they shout,
"We want Barabbas!"
The vote is taken. It is Barabbas
by a landslide. This Jesus is being
led away. He has been defeated:
His ideas and the ideas of His fol-.
lowers have been rejected. THE
MOVEMENT IS DEAD.
pose the rule feel we have some
valid reasons for our opinion.
We are not contending that all
restraints should be removed, but
we do feel we should be free to
make some decisions for ourselves.
If we cannot do this in college,
when will we learn to decide what
is right or wrong, good or bad?
Those of us who thoughtlessly
disturb others by being noisy
would perhaps learn a lesson in
courtesy by being campused. It
seems rather absurd, however, to
be campused for brushing our
teeth if we are disturbing no one
else. And is there any harm in
talking quietly to someone if no
one else is being disturbed?
Maybe we will lose a little sleep,
but we feel this is our decision
to make. We will have to make
many decisions in the course of
life and we feel that now is the
time to begin.
Sincerely,
Barbara Fryar

Indian WOManfrom Columbia cooks "casabe" over a stove in her cooking hut. Judy Anderson, who
worked with this woman's tribe, realized this summer the necessity for working through the patterns of
the people. Other student missionaries came to similar conclusions after their summer spent on mission
fields.

"The tribe I taught thought
Americans kill all short people
because we (missionaries) are all
tall, they think," exclaimed Judy
Anderson, one of seven students
Bethel sent on missionary pro-jects
in North and South America
last summer.
The objective of the project was
to have the students help mission-aries,
observe the mission fields
and bring back impressions of
their summer experiences.
Carol Brisson considered her
most difficult problem the pres-sure
"to conform to the people;
it was harder than I thought.
In everything I did I had to be
careful because the people were
constantly watching me." Carol
spent her summer in St. Criox,
Virgin Islands with Nancy Dean.
Alice Tagenfelt and Judy Ander-son
found a desire for the familiar
most bothersome. They both work-ed
as secretaries for the first few
weeks and then separated to two
tribes, working as translators.
Bert Heep, who worked with a
tribe in Oaxaca, Mexico replied,
"The hardest thing for me was
cultural shock. It's quite an ad-justment
to eat with your fingers,
watch people spitting on the floors
and see women taking a bath in the
middle of the village."
Nancy found that the low
moral standards of the people
bothered her. "I often wondered
if I wanted to be exposed to the
type of attitude as a mission-ary."
Personal attitude, not environ-ment,
proved to be the most diffi-cult
aspect of Sam Bolet's exper-ience.
"It was my own life that
was hard to discipline—it's im-portant
to have a real burden for
people." Sam worked with a
church in Brooklyn, New York.
Students expressed diverse op-inions

Jim Kiem, who worked with the
Indians in Nett Lake, Minnesota
answered, "They are receptive yet
they are still uncertain about the
white-man's religion."
Most of the students returned
with a somewhat tarnished version
of the idealistic concept of mis-sions
with which they departed
last spring. Judy and Alice, how-ever,
retained their original pic-ture.
"It was exciting. I wish I
could talk to everyone about this
summer," was Judy's enthusiastic
reply.
Alice commented, "Their per-sonalities
reminded me of people
I knew in the states. They are
intelligent individuals with ter-rific
potential."
The students unanimously agreed
that the mission projects are worth-while.
The summer's experience
crystallized plans for several.
Carol asserted, "My concept of
missions is more realistic and I'm
willing to accept it if God wants
me as a missionary."
Contrary to what he expected,
Bert commented, "This summer
didn't 'make me or break me.' I'm
still undecided." Jim was more
certain, "I know I'll go into Chris-tian
service, but it's still a decision
between missions and a pastorate.
Judy is planning on the mission
field and hopes to specialize in
translating.
Sam reflected that, "I felt in-volved

have captured a variety of subjects in all types of art
forms and media.
Another definite type of art can be seen at the Minneapolis
Institute of Art. Spanish subjects are treated in the highly individual-istic
manner of Goya. A showing of selections from Goya's Capricios
graces the walls of the Institute until Nov. 29.
Walker Art Center opens a new section of display—a collection
of "Jose Guadalupe Pasada: Graphics." This display opens Nov. 15,
Sunday afternoon. Another new showing opens Friday at the Kilbride-
Bradley Gallery, 68 S. 10th St. in Minneapolis. Paintings and prints
by Mr. Kilbride are on display.
the total project goal is $28,000.
The first $3,000 will be used to
send Bethel students to mission
fields next summer.
Keim hopes that 10 students
will be able to participate in the
summer project. Selection of stu-dent
missionaries and mission
fields should be final by Easter
vacation.
Remainder of the funds will go
toward the world missions class-room.
Missionary project offering

As part of the student mission-ary
project at Bethel College and
Seminary for this year, students
have decided to provide the funds
for a world missions classroom in
the seminary complex on the new
campus.
This classroom will be one of
five major classrooms in the build,
ing. According to Dwight Jessup
of the Public Affairs Office, mis-sionaries
are going to send decora-tions
and furnishings that will be
incorporated into the basic struc-ture
of the room to give a mission-ary
emphasis.
The student Religious Commit-tee
decided that in this way, the
environment of the classroom
would serve to stimulate the mis-sionary
thrust, but would not
change the basic structure of the
room.

of the Religious Committee,

Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, made an
impression on the American people in 1863 that continues to
influence our lives. No beginning American History student can read
the Gettysburg Address and remain unimpressed by the wisdom and
magnitude of these famous words.
Miss VanDyke, this year's Miss America, impressed the Christian
world as she maintained her Christian testimony in a most crucial
moment—a moment when the Miss America crown was at stake.
I am impressed by the people who so happily perform their daily
tasks on campus which are often taken for granted: by the smiling
ladies who work in the coffee shop, by the warm custodians who
maintain our school, by the friendly ladies who toil each day in the
various offices, by The kind people who put the mail in the P.O.
boxes.
Yet, I am most impressed by the students who serve as managers,
or trainers, or statisiticians on our various athletic teams. The reason
for this stems from the fact that they are the ones with whom I am
in closest contact.
If you have never had occasion to be in a locker room after prac-tice
or after a game, and witness the great pomp and ceremony with
which tape is strewn about, uniforms heaved into a huge pile and the
training room all but obliterated—you just haven't lived! It makes
your dorm room, during final exam week, look commonplace.
Long after the team has departed and the shambled locker room
is all but forgotten, one may peek around the entrance door and see
Bob MacDonald, the football manager, Jerry Wahlstrom, the student
trainer, quietly sorting the subterfuge and preparing it for the wash.
The managers and student trainers of course have other tasks, such
as bandaging and taping athletes "owies." But their job is never done.
Perhaps John Milton expresses the sentiments stated here when
he says "They also serve who only stand and wait."
I speak for the entire football team when I express the team's
gratitude to Bob MacDonald, Jerry Wahlstrom, Ken Bell, Doug Gordh,
Steve Hoffman and Bill Jackson for making this great season an even
greater one.

With the intramural football
program drawing to a climax, the
teams which do not have a chance
of placing high in the standings
can turn their eyes toward basket-ball
which begins tonight.
Unique to this year's program
is a two league arrangement. Each
participant will have two teams,
one in an "A" league, the other
in a "B" league. First place in
"A" competition will be rewarded
with 100 points while 50 points
will be given to the "B" champ-ion.
Games in the "A" league will
be played on Wednesday even-ings
at 7:15, 8:15 and 9:15. "B"
league action will take place on
Thursdays at the same times.
Carl Linden, co-ordinator of the
basketball tourney, states that the
purpose of the two leagues is to
allow more men to take part. The
"A" teams will carry eight men,
apiece with the "B" squads un-limited.
Unbeaten, untied and unscored
upon, the Seminary has gained at
least a tie for the football champ-,
ionship. Their last two games have
been won by forfeit and the game
this Saturday has been conceded
to them by the same means.
All of the other teams have
lost at least once with two games
remaining for most squads. The
final week pits the Seminary a-gainst
the Jesters, which will
determine whether the current
leaders will win the champion-ship
or be forced to share it.
Tomorrow night at Hamline Uni-
The Bethel Royals football team
has long since departed from the
gridiron but their team and indi-vidual
statistics are still making
news.
The total offensive rushing yard-age,
1,758, added to 599 yards in
passing, added up to a Gargantuan
2,357 yards. This was the total
yardage for eight games, making
an average of 294.6 yards per
game.
The Royals limited their op-ponents
to a combined total of
1,670 yards for a total game
average of 201.3.
Bob Nolin was the leader in
individual scoring with 50 points
over the eight game span. Follow-ing
close behind were Stan Miller
and Duane Gibson with 43 points
each.
In individual rushing, Nolin
carried the ball for 116 plays
for 511 yards and a 4.6 average
per carry. Stan Miller lugged
the pigskin 126 plays for 511
versity pool, the swimming and
diving meet will be held. This is
a one night event and will include
individual and relay swimming
plus diving competition.
The standings for completed
sports shows the Jesters leading
with 50 points followed by the
Barons, with 33, and the Knights,
who have 17. All other partici-pants
have been blanked thus far.
Cocking, arMand looking for a receiver is seminary quarterback
Dave Kastelein. He spots Bruce Erickson and completes pass for long
yardage. The scene is typical of intramural action, and particularly the
Seminary, as they are still undefeated.

Campus Thefts
Reach New Peak
Recently, there has been an out-break
of thefts on Bethel's cam-pus.
Stolen items range in value
from $60 to $220. Some of these
include clothing, books, purses
and many personal belongings.
In one case, a coed had her
shoes taken from her closet. In
another case, one Student Senate
secretary had her purse stolen
from the Senate office.
The administration feels that
much of this is done by Bethel
students. In an interview with
Dean Muck, he stated, "Some of
these thefts have to be inside
jobs. I am sure of this from my
own acquaintance with the pro-cedures
used. I am also sure
that there is some sneak thiev-ery
involved."
Complaints of thefts reached a
peak in late September and early
October. Since then they have tap-ered
off somewhat, until just re-cently
they were again brought to
our attention.
"Thefts on campus are virtually
impossible to trace. The police do
check the pawn shops regularly
for identifiable items."
Muck also gave some ideas
for the prevention of these bur-glaries.
First, students must be
careful not to leave anything
which might be a tempta-tion
to otheri. The dean also
stated that students must be con-stantly
vigilant.
"We have a lot of people drift-ing
through our campus. We
should pay attention to strangers
as well as our own students."
To conclude the interview, Dean
Muck said that thefts should be
reported immediately. This is
necessary to heighten chances for
recovery of the stolen goods.

Skalman Films
Student Actors
It has been the experience of
most Bethel students to be trou-bled
by bright lights and strange
scenes in the coffee shop this
past week.
Byron Skalman has been film-ing
one of a series of films on
foreign mission fields. This one is
on the Philippines. The movie
starts on the Bethel campus and
through interviews with a CLAR-ION
reporter three missionaries
describe the Philippine mission
field in a series of flashbacks.
The three missionaries appear-ing
in the film, Roy Nelson, An-drew
Nelson and Bill Chesbro are
home for World Missions Week.
Other films done by Skalman
for the Conference are on the mis-sions
in Assam, India, Argentina,
Ethiopia, Brazil and Japan.
Skalman started as a photo-grapher
for an aircraft company
and as the company grew he gain-ed
experience. After serving as a
Navy photographer he worked at
Moody Institute of Science before
attending Bethel Jr. College. He
left the college to teach at Moody
and then went into his present
field of filming world missions.
"Negro Thought on Civil Rights
—1964" will be discussed by Cal-vin
Walton, Executive Director of
the Minnesota Governor's Commis ,
sion on Human Rights, in tomor-row's
civil rights convocation, the
second of the series of three be-ing
held this week.
Dr. Harold Chase, professor of
political science at the University
of Minnesota, started the series to-day
with a lecture on the Civil
Rights law and its implications.
Walton, himself a Negro, re-ceived
his B.S. degree from Ten-nessee
Agricultural and Industrial
State U with a major in political
science and a minor in history.
He received his M.A. in political
science from Ohio State U in 1959,
Prior to his present position
with the State, Walton spent
four years wih the Urban Lea-gue.
His duties with the League
consisted of working to improve
employment and training for
Negro citizens.
Rev. Will Campbell from Nash-ville,
Tenn., will speak on the
"Christian and Human Rights" in
the convocation Friday and will
continue this theme in an evening
convocation at 8.
Campbell has had a wide and
varied involvement with the racial
issue in the south. After his resig-nation
as Chaplain of Ole Miss, he
became actively involved in the
National Council of Churches. He
is currently involved as full time
staff member of the Council of
Southern Churchmen. This organi-zation,
founded by Campbell, re-flects
his convictions that the
church should meet the race prob-lem
with the Christian Gospel
rather than a humanistic approach.
A noon luncheon will be held
in the President's Dining hall
tomorrow with WaiTon, and on
Friday with Campbell. Students
are encouraged to bring any
questions they have on the is-sues
for the lecturers to discuss.
The Convocation committee has

supper club.

Bodien Council
Clarifies Rules;
Stiffens Policy
Last Thursday the Bodien Dorm
Council decided to "crack down"
on the rule which "normally ex-pects"
freshmen girls to be in
their rooms by 11 p.m. on week
days. Freshmen girls are now re-quired
to be in their rooms at 11
p.m. in Bodien Dormitory.
Because a greater percentage of
upper class women live in Hag-strom
and each room has its own
washroom facilities, the inforce-ment
in Hagstrom will remain as
liberal as it has in the past.
During the Bodien meeting, the
dorm president was reported to
have explained, "Dorm council
doesn't want to lose face. The
CLARION said we were inconsist-ant."
She later qualified this statement
by pointing out, ". . . we meant,
we haven't been strictly enforcing
it because it isn't fitting to both
dormitories . . . There is incon-sistancy.
This rule is not plain;
therefore we are clarifying it."
When asked if this new enforce-ment
would require a change in
the freshmen girls' handbook, Bo-dien's
president answered, "No,
according to the handbook it (11
p.m. rule) could go either way.
So, we are going to enforce the
rule."
This change in the enforcement
policy of the rule will not affect
the upper class women living in
Bodien. Study hours will be from
2-5 p.m. and from 7-10 p.m. The
hour from 10-11 p.m. will be des-ignated
"washroom hour."
two abstaining in the previous
Monday's meet.
The matter went into delib-eration
last Wednesday night as
Bill Madsen and his committee
gathered with Joe Marcea, J.
David Patterson and Dennis
Rossi to work on the Senate ob-jections
to the standing consti-tution.
Five issues were taken into con-sideration,
chief among them be-ing
the question of closed mem-bership.
Patterson defended the
Cabin's position on the grounds
that membership would be closed
due to inadequate space. Clarify-ing
his stand, Patterson noted that
Captain's Cabin would only be
closed after all reservations had
been made for the next event.
George Palke, chairman of the
Athletic Committee, voiced his
objection to the supper club be-cause
it would interfere with
all-school events. Cabin repre-sentatives
objected to a specific
adjournment time but agreed to
keep all-school activities in mind
when planning an entertainment
schedule.
Opinions on the controversial
Captain's Cabin were widely var-ied
as Dr. Roy Dalton, professor
of history, vowed to "fight it all
the way to the president's office,"
on the grounds that the type of
programs and general purpose of
the Cabin are contrary to Bethel's
purpose as a Christian college.

Republicans Give Voters
No Choice But Johnson
"Let conservatives give the people a choice," claimed
Goldwater Republicans before the Republican National Con-vention.
Conservatives won at the Convention and they gave
the American people a choice in the 1964 presidential election.
They chose to give Lyndon B. Johnson the greatest popu-lar
vote margin in United States history with over 61% of the
record 70 million votes cast. And they chose to elect a more
liberal Congress. This lopsided victory of Democratic candidates
appears to be a "mandate, loud and clear," as Time magazine
puts it, for Johnson and his "Great Society."
But not all things are what they appear to be. It is very
possible that the American people's choice was not so much
a mandate for Johnson as it was a rejection of Goldwater
and his conservatism.
If people had not been voting against Goldwater, why
would former Republican strongholds in New England and the
Midwest have reversed their past history of party alignments
to vote for Johnson? Small Protestant towns across New Eng-land,
which have long been known for conservative voting,
went consistantly for Johnson, making almost a complete a-bout
face from the way they voted in the 1960 election between
moderate Republican Nixon and liberal Democrat Kennedy.
Rural Midwestern states like Iowa, Nebraska, downstate
Illinois and rural Wisconsin, which have voted Republican
down the line for years, went with unprecedented margins for
Johnson. Why? Because people do not see the need for a
drastic shift in direction. In the past the American people
have not chosen to make extreme changes unless the times—
a great depression or war—called for change.
Although many people would rather have voted for a
man more moderate than the New Dealing Johnson, they
could not because the Republican party gave them a choice
that called for drastic change when the people saw and felt
no need for it. The Republian party made a political blunder
when it forgot to consider the mood of the people and of-fered
them a choice that left them no choice . . . except to
vote for Johnson.
With the benefit of hindsight it is easy to agree with
New York's Governor Rockefeller that Goldwater took the
party out of the mainstream of American political history. In
taking it out of the mainstream he grounded the party ship
taking several good Republican politicians like Keating of New
York, Taft of Ohio and Percy of Illinois down with him.
If the American people issued a mandate in the 1964
presidential election, it was not just a mandate for Johnson.
It was also a mandate for moderate Republicans to recover
control of the Republican party so that the two party system
can continue.

Letters to the Editor:
Wells: 'Rule Insults Maturity'
by John Halvorson
Sino - Soviet Relations .. .
The Chinese and Soviets may
talk peace. Communist middlemen
are trying to arrange Sino-Soviet
peace talks, attempting to get the
feuding Red giants together at the
conference table. However, the
Soviets have re-iterated their "no
back down" idealogical position.
U.S. - Soviet Relations .. .
Following a policy of alternating
civilian friendship and military
toughness, the Soviet defense min-ister
accused the United States De-fense
Secretary, Robert S. Mc-
Namara, of threatening to destroy
his country "at any moment." He
then added, "Any enemy attempt
to destroy the Soviet Union will,
be answered in a suitable manner."
Saudi Arabia .. .
In Saudi Arabia, King Saud was
dethroned and his brother, Crown
Prince and Prime Minister, Faisal
proclaimed King. The Cabinet Min-isters
and Religious Consultive
Council approved the dethrone-ment.
Faisal has been the real
ruler since ailing King Saud was
forced from power in 1962.
Viet-Nam ...
Vietnamese Major General Ngu-yen
Khanh advised the United
States to take the war to Commun-ist
North Vietnam and Red China.
He claims the balance of power in
Asia will swing in favor of Com-munist
China unless the United
States takes more positive action.
Humphrey Successor . . .
Hubert Humphrey advised Gov-ernor
Karl Rolvaag to designate
the vice-president's successor in
the Senate "promptly and as soon
as possible." Speculation gives
Walter F. Mondale, a Minneapolis
attorney, the nod.
Polls . . .
Elections were the big news on
the national scene. The polls prov-ed
correct in their analysis of
election results. The long-establish-ed
Gallop Poll picked Johnson -
Humphrey by 61%. Their actual
margin-61.3%.
Republicanism .. .
The GOP must now regather and
conciliate its forces. Unity is a
real problem. The Conservative,
Moderate and Liberal factions are,
all fighting for control. Goldwater
says he won't surrender the party
leadership. Meanwhile, Nixon call-ed
Rockefeller a "spoil-sport." The
reply came back that Nixon was
"peevish."

Dear Editor:
In preface to my remarks about
the dorm rules at Bethel, I would
like to state that in any organiza-tion,
rules are necessary. But in
Bethel's dorms some of the rules
in practice are unreasonable. This
situation causes more problems
than it solves.
The "11 p.m. in the room" rule
is an unreasonable rule. It places
restrictions on maturity; it insults
the basic idea of personal disci-pline.
The motive of the ruling is
probably to make the dorm quiet
for sleeping but most students
study after this hour in their
rooms anyway.
It would be advantageous if we
were allowed freedom of move-ment
from room-to-room. Then we
could study and discuss assign-ments
with friends and borrow
materials. As it stands now we
can be campused for doing the
things that would be helpful in
our studying.
Another rule that is unrea-sonable
is the campus system.
Under this a girl may be "im-prisoned"
in her room for minor-trivia
such as using the toilet
after hours (at least in Bodien).
Using this system a girl may be
expelled from college for no
more than being caught in the
bathroom five times after hours.
I don't propose that we let the
student engage in activities such
as showers that could disturb oth-ers.
I do propose that we be allow-ed
to have freedom to move in
and out of our rooms without fear
of being campused.
There is the problem, too, of the
value of offenses for which we can
Jesus or the other man that has,
been offered, Barabbas?
What about this Jesus of Nazar-eth
whom the people have misun-derstood?
He has been traveling
throughout the country for the last
few years preaching and teaching
ideas which are foreign to the pre-sent
generation yet many of His
concepts are those that were held
at the beginning of this nation's
history.
He attacks those who are in
high places. He condemns them
for hypocrisy and corruption.
The few who follow this Jesus
are fanatical in their devotion
to Him. Accusations, many of
be campused. Would anyone dare,
to propose that being out of our
rooms after hours is as serious an
offense as coming in late? Again
under the campus system there is
unjust punishment for minor, tri-vial
things.
Idealy, in a Christian atmos-phere
there should not be writ-ten
laws. Common courtesies
should be observed without a
"legalistic" system. Such can be
the case at Bethel.
It follows that after condemn-ing
one system that one should
propose an alternate, more work-able
solution. I present for appro-val
a system of demerits. Under
this system there would be a value
placed on each offense. The more
flagrant violations could be dealt
with more severely than the minor,
trivial discourtesies.
Also, I propose that the "11 p.m.
in the room" rule be removed and
instead a more mature approach
to control be used.
These are my views. I hope they
will be considered carefully; keep-ing
in mind that no society can
be perfectly static and without

Dear Editor,
As residents of Bodien, a num-ber
of us were especially interest-ed
in the article in last week's
CLARION concerning Bodien's "11
p.m. rule." There are, of course,
conflicting views regarding this
matter, but those of us who op-which
are false, have been hurl-ed
against Him.
When answering questions He is
quick and forthright to present His
ideas. He is a radical and His
ideas do not fit in the great so-ciety
of this new frontier.
Now He stands before the peo-ple.
They have to make a choice.
What will their decision be?
"Give us Barabbas!", they shout,
"We want Barabbas!"
The vote is taken. It is Barabbas
by a landslide. This Jesus is being
led away. He has been defeated:
His ideas and the ideas of His fol-.
lowers have been rejected. THE
MOVEMENT IS DEAD.
pose the rule feel we have some
valid reasons for our opinion.
We are not contending that all
restraints should be removed, but
we do feel we should be free to
make some decisions for ourselves.
If we cannot do this in college,
when will we learn to decide what
is right or wrong, good or bad?
Those of us who thoughtlessly
disturb others by being noisy
would perhaps learn a lesson in
courtesy by being campused. It
seems rather absurd, however, to
be campused for brushing our
teeth if we are disturbing no one
else. And is there any harm in
talking quietly to someone if no
one else is being disturbed?
Maybe we will lose a little sleep,
but we feel this is our decision
to make. We will have to make
many decisions in the course of
life and we feel that now is the
time to begin.
Sincerely,
Barbara Fryar

Indian WOManfrom Columbia cooks "casabe" over a stove in her cooking hut. Judy Anderson, who
worked with this woman's tribe, realized this summer the necessity for working through the patterns of
the people. Other student missionaries came to similar conclusions after their summer spent on mission
fields.

"The tribe I taught thought
Americans kill all short people
because we (missionaries) are all
tall, they think," exclaimed Judy
Anderson, one of seven students
Bethel sent on missionary pro-jects
in North and South America
last summer.
The objective of the project was
to have the students help mission-aries,
observe the mission fields
and bring back impressions of
their summer experiences.
Carol Brisson considered her
most difficult problem the pres-sure
"to conform to the people;
it was harder than I thought.
In everything I did I had to be
careful because the people were
constantly watching me." Carol
spent her summer in St. Criox,
Virgin Islands with Nancy Dean.
Alice Tagenfelt and Judy Ander-son
found a desire for the familiar
most bothersome. They both work-ed
as secretaries for the first few
weeks and then separated to two
tribes, working as translators.
Bert Heep, who worked with a
tribe in Oaxaca, Mexico replied,
"The hardest thing for me was
cultural shock. It's quite an ad-justment
to eat with your fingers,
watch people spitting on the floors
and see women taking a bath in the
middle of the village."
Nancy found that the low
moral standards of the people
bothered her. "I often wondered
if I wanted to be exposed to the
type of attitude as a mission-ary."
Personal attitude, not environ-ment,
proved to be the most diffi-cult
aspect of Sam Bolet's exper-ience.
"It was my own life that
was hard to discipline—it's im-portant
to have a real burden for
people." Sam worked with a
church in Brooklyn, New York.
Students expressed diverse op-inions

Jim Kiem, who worked with the
Indians in Nett Lake, Minnesota
answered, "They are receptive yet
they are still uncertain about the
white-man's religion."
Most of the students returned
with a somewhat tarnished version
of the idealistic concept of mis-sions
with which they departed
last spring. Judy and Alice, how-ever,
retained their original pic-ture.
"It was exciting. I wish I
could talk to everyone about this
summer," was Judy's enthusiastic
reply.
Alice commented, "Their per-sonalities
reminded me of people
I knew in the states. They are
intelligent individuals with ter-rific
potential."
The students unanimously agreed
that the mission projects are worth-while.
The summer's experience
crystallized plans for several.
Carol asserted, "My concept of
missions is more realistic and I'm
willing to accept it if God wants
me as a missionary."
Contrary to what he expected,
Bert commented, "This summer
didn't 'make me or break me.' I'm
still undecided." Jim was more
certain, "I know I'll go into Chris-tian
service, but it's still a decision
between missions and a pastorate.
Judy is planning on the mission
field and hopes to specialize in
translating.
Sam reflected that, "I felt in-volved

Kent Lundholm, former Bethel student, appears with the Norman
Luboff Choir as they perform in Northrop Auditorium in the Uni-versity
Artist Series.
Every Friday evening, the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, un-der
the direction of Stanislaw Skrowaczewski, performs. Usually they
feature a guest soloist.
This Friday finds violinist Charles Traeger playing the famous
"Violin Concerto No. 5 in A Major" by Mozart. Also included on the
program are compositions by Ravel, "Le Tonbeaun de Conperin,"
Mennin's "Symphony No. 7," and Richard Strauss "Dance of the
Seven Veils" from "Salome."
Paul Fetler, University professor of musical composition directs
the Symphony Nov. 20 in the world premier of his own composition
"Cantus Tristus" dedicated to the late President John F. Kennedy.
"Bruckner Symphony No. 9" in D Minor (unfinished) and a Proko-fieff
piano concerto with guest pianist Byron Janis will also be on
the program.
The octagonal stage of the Guthrie Theatre houses the Minnea-polis
Symphony String Quartet as they give the first concert of a
four concert series, Nov. 18 at 8:30 p.m.
University Theatre now has a play by Walter Kerr, a folk musical
entitled "Sing Out Sweet Land" in performance at the Scott Hall
Auditorium. St. Paul's newly opened repetory theatre now has two of
the 10 productions in performance: "The Lady's Not for Burning" and
"Mother Courage."
Do not forget the showing of the new film version of the play
"My Fair Lady." Starring Rex Harrison, the original Professor Higgens
and Audrey Hepburn. It opens next week at the Century Theatre
in Minneapolis.
Art lovers, arise and support your cause. Several galleries through
the greater metropolitan area contain paintings and sculptures repre-sentative
of all periods and media.
Windsor Gallery at 5017 France Ave., Edina, has a superb
display of art coming out of the expressionistic period. German ex-pressionists
have captured a variety of subjects in all types of art
forms and media.
Another definite type of art can be seen at the Minneapolis
Institute of Art. Spanish subjects are treated in the highly individual-istic
manner of Goya. A showing of selections from Goya's Capricios
graces the walls of the Institute until Nov. 29.
Walker Art Center opens a new section of display—a collection
of "Jose Guadalupe Pasada: Graphics." This display opens Nov. 15,
Sunday afternoon. Another new showing opens Friday at the Kilbride-
Bradley Gallery, 68 S. 10th St. in Minneapolis. Paintings and prints
by Mr. Kilbride are on display.
the total project goal is $28,000.
The first $3,000 will be used to
send Bethel students to mission
fields next summer.
Keim hopes that 10 students
will be able to participate in the
summer project. Selection of stu-dent
missionaries and mission
fields should be final by Easter
vacation.
Remainder of the funds will go
toward the world missions class-room.
Missionary project offering
will be taken every Friday during
the chapel service to meet the

As part of the student mission-ary
project at Bethel College and
Seminary for this year, students
have decided to provide the funds
for a world missions classroom in
the seminary complex on the new
campus.
This classroom will be one of
five major classrooms in the build,
ing. According to Dwight Jessup
of the Public Affairs Office, mis-sionaries
are going to send decora-tions
and furnishings that will be
incorporated into the basic struc-ture
of the room to give a mission-ary
emphasis.
The student Religious Commit-tee
decided that in this way, the
environment of the classroom
would serve to stimulate the mis-sionary
thrust, but would not
change the basic structure of the
room.
According to James Keim, chair-man
of the Religious Committee,

Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, made an
impression on the American people in 1863 that continues to
influence our lives. No beginning American History student can read
the Gettysburg Address and remain unimpressed by the wisdom and
magnitude of these famous words.
Miss VanDyke, this year's Miss America, impressed the Christian
world as she maintained her Christian testimony in a most crucial
moment—a moment when the Miss America crown was at stake.
I am impressed by the people who so happily perform their daily
tasks on campus which are often taken for granted: by the smiling
ladies who work in the coffee shop, by the warm custodians who
maintain our school, by the friendly ladies who toil each day in the
various offices, by The kind people who put the mail in the P.O.
boxes.
Yet, I am most impressed by the students who serve as managers,
or trainers, or statisiticians on our various athletic teams. The reason
for this stems from the fact that they are the ones with whom I am
in closest contact.
If you have never had occasion to be in a locker room after prac-tice
or after a game, and witness the great pomp and ceremony with
which tape is strewn about, uniforms heaved into a huge pile and the
training room all but obliterated—you just haven't lived! It makes
your dorm room, during final exam week, look commonplace.
Long after the team has departed and the shambled locker room
is all but forgotten, one may peek around the entrance door and see
Bob MacDonald, the football manager, Jerry Wahlstrom, the student
trainer, quietly sorting the subterfuge and preparing it for the wash.
The managers and student trainers of course have other tasks, such
as bandaging and taping athletes "owies." But their job is never done.
Perhaps John Milton expresses the sentiments stated here when
he says "They also serve who only stand and wait."
I speak for the entire football team when I express the team's
gratitude to Bob MacDonald, Jerry Wahlstrom, Ken Bell, Doug Gordh,
Steve Hoffman and Bill Jackson for making this great season an even
greater one.

With the intramural football
program drawing to a climax, the
teams which do not have a chance
of placing high in the standings
can turn their eyes toward basket-ball
which begins tonight.
Unique to this year's program
is a two league arrangement. Each
participant will have two teams,
one in an "A" league, the other
in a "B" league. First place in
"A" competition will be rewarded
with 100 points while 50 points
will be given to the "B" champ-ion.
Games in the "A" league will
be played on Wednesday even-ings
at 7:15, 8:15 and 9:15. "B"
league action will take place on
Thursdays at the same times.
Carl Linden, co-ordinator of the
basketball tourney, states that the
purpose of the two leagues is to
allow more men to take part. The
"A" teams will carry eight men,
apiece with the "B" squads un-limited.
Unbeaten, untied and unscored
upon, the Seminary has gained at
least a tie for the football champ-,
ionship. Their last two games have
been won by forfeit and the game
this Saturday has been conceded
to them by the same means.
All of the other teams have
lost at least once with two games
remaining for most squads. The
final week pits the Seminary a-gainst
the Jesters, which will
determine whether the current
leaders will win the champion-ship
or be forced to share it.

The Bethel Royals football team
has long since departed from the
gridiron but their team and indi-vidual
statistics are still making
news.
The total offensive rushing yard-age,
1,758, added to 599 yards in
passing, added up to a Gargantuan
2,357 yards. This was the total
yardage for eight games, making
an average of 294.6 yards per
game.
The Royals limited their op-ponents
to a combined total of
1,670 yards for a total game
average of 201.3.
Bob Nolin was the leader in
individual scoring with 50 points
over the eight game span. Follow-ing
close behind were Stan Miller
and Duane Gibson with 43 points
each.
In individual rushing, Nolin
carried the ball for 116 plays
for 511 yards and a 4.6 average
per carry. Stan Miller lugged
the pigskin 126 plays for 511
versity pool, the swimming and
diving meet will be held. This is
a one night event and will include
individual and relay swimming
plus diving competition.
The standings for completed
sports shows the Jesters leading
with 50 points followed by the
Barons, with 33, and the Knights,
who have 17. All other partici-pants
have been blanked thus far.
Cocking, arMand looking for a receiver is seminary quarterback
Dave Kastelein. He spots Bruce Erickson and completes pass for long
yardage. The scene is typical of intramural action, and particularly the
Seminary, as they are still undefeated.
